Yes, my daughter has all 3 of her sock monkeys from the early 70's made by MY aunt who died many years ago. They are treasured! I have seen the socks in different mail order, one being Home-Sew Inc. They are in Pa, USA. Have a web site listed below. Also have an 800 number you can call (1-800-344-4739). They often have free shipping and there's a coupon in my lastest book for $2 off shipping. The number is P6920 and expires 3/31/09. IF you mail your order, you have to enclose the coupon, otherwise just tell them the number. The socks are 2 pr. for $11.25 if you want to compare prices at WalMart. I have used HomeSew for years and always been happy with them. HOpe this helps!

Thanks for the information.
This is good to know. Thanks for asking. I have always loved sock monkeys. Target has sock monkey footed pjs. So cute :)
I could not find them locally, but the ones from the sockmonkey company were very high quality and durable.

My husband was recently cleaning out a cabinet that we keep our pictures in and guess what he found stuffed in there! Yes it was a grey verison of the sock monkey.
I picked a pair of these socks up at a army surplus store and the pattern comes with the socks

Gee, I never had one or made one - lol. LQQKs like you got a few good answers here, however.
If you watch the videos on HGTV/Carol Duvall Show there are other "animals" to make besides the monkey. You can start your own ZOO:)

Let me guess - is Rosie a Lab? I hope you can find the socks. I haven't looked for them, but thought of making my DG one since she is so into monkies. Hope to see yours posted in the projects.
